The American Clean Power Association (ACP) has forecasted that the US is set to add 32GW of utility-scale solar PV capacity in 2024.

The average global LCOE for fixed-axis solar PV systems in 2024 reached US$66/MWh, ranging from US$28/MWh to US$117/MWh.

The global weighted average LCOE of utility-scale PV plants fell to US$0.044/kWh in 2023, a 12% year-on-year decline from 2022.

Ground-mounted PV is Germany's most cost-effective power generation technology, according to Fraunhofer ISE.

A Lawrence Berkeley National Lab report has quantified the improving value of solar and wind power in the US.

US analyst Lazard notes that renewable energy technologies continue to have some of the lowest LCOE figures in the US.

Digitalisation offers PV plant operators the opportunity to shift from preventive to predictive maintenance practices. Eduardo Sarquis reports on research aimed at shedding further light on the system performance benefits of moving to a predictive O&M strategy.

With the United States on the cusp of an IRA-driven surge in utility-scale PV deployment, Mark Bolinger and Joachim Seel of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory cover key technology and market trends in this synopsis of their annual “Utility-Scale Solar” report series.

The levelised cost of energy for solar PV will drop to US$21/MWh by 2050, according to DNV's Energy Transition Outlook 2030.
